Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 1076

Chapter 1076: She Is Mine
While Feng Lin and Dong Huang ate with relish, the other children could only stare in envy, jealousy, and longing. They couldn’t help but recall Dong Huang’s birthday, feeling regretful.

Because of the actions of some children, they could no longer befriend Dong Huang. She only played with Feng Lin now and was always guarded around others.

Even those who hadn’t bullied her or Feng Lin were no longer trusted by her. This year, it seemed they wouldn’t be getting any candies or boiled eggs from Dong Huang’s mother.

The school day passed peacefully, and the children soon forgot their unhappiness as lessons began.

Meanwhile, Li Chenze was working in the farmland when he saw Han Yuheng. Placing his bucket of water down, he walked over to him and called, “Team leader, please wait a moment.”

Hearing his voice, Han Yuheng stopped in his tracks and greeted him with a smile, “Brother Chenze.”

In public, the Li family still addressed him as “Team Leader” to avoid rumors and preserve Han Yuheng’s authority.

“Team Leader, my family was delayed for a few days and just returned today. I wonder if we could ask for a few more days off,” Li Chenze said.

Han Yuheng wasn’t surprised when he heard this. Everyone in the village knew the Li family had hosted a wedding banquet in the capital. He had already planned to extend their leave and, seeing Li Chenze inform him personally, he readily agreed.

“No problem. I can give your family another week off.”

Relieved by this, Li Chenze smiled, “Thank you, Team Leader.”

After the brief exchange, Li Chenze returned to work while Han Yuheng continued toward the production team’s office. As he neared the office, a robust man appeared, blocking his path. Recognizing the face, he knew it was that woman’s husband, Sun Dalang.

Standing in front of him, Sun Dalang said, “Team Leader Han, I have something to discuss with you.”

Han Yuheng had already guessed why he was here. Knowing it was useless to feign ignorance, he nodded, “Let’s talk over there.”

Surprised by his calm demeanor, Sun Dalang hesitated but followed him.

They walked to the back of the production team’s warehouse. Under a large tree, Han Yuheng said, “Now you can tell me what you want to discuss.”

Looking at his calm expression, Sun Dalang was displeased but said, “Team Leader Han, I know you had an affair with my wife.”

Han Yuheng clenched his fists tightly, already prepared for the worst. Since regaining control of his mind and actions, he no longer wished to avoid responsibility.

Regardless of the circumstances, he had done wrong, and he intended to make amends. Only after he paid for his sins could he start anew with his wife and children.

Seeing his silence, Sun Dalang continued, “My wife is pregnant.”

This time, Han Yuheng nodded and said, “I know. Xiao Xi told me the child is mine.”

At his words, Sun Dalang laughed and said with a hint of provocation, “Unfortunately, that child is mine. She is lying to you so you will divorce your wife and marry her. But I have no intention of divorcing her or reporting you to the authorities.”

Taken aback by his words, Han Yuheng asked, “You don’t mind that she slept with me?”

Sun Dalang chuckled at his words and said, “I don’t care if she slept with you. What matters is the child in her belly is mine. She is my wife, and I won’t let her go. So you shouldn’t divorce your wife.”

Seeing Han Yuheng’s surprised expression, Sun Dalang laughed and added, “Team Leader Han, we are both scumbags. Why are you so surprised that I don’t care about my wife’s affair?”

“She slept with you, but I slept with another woman. Since we both strayed, we are even, no one is better than the others. As long as she stops seeking other men, I won’t hold her past against her.”

After hearing his words, Han Yuheng was silent for a moment and asked, “So, what do you want from me?”

Sun Dalang shrugged and said, “Well, I want nothing. I came just to let you know that the child inside my wife’s belly is mine. So, if you have any plans to marry her, you should forget about it. She is mine.”

Han Yuheng looked at him for a moment and realized that he was serious. Since the other party was eager to help him solve this problem, there was no reason for him to refuse. He nodded and agreed readily, “I understand.”

Sun Dalang was satisfied with his decision and added, “By the way, I hope you and your wife can reconcile. This way, my silly woman will stop thinking about climbing into your bed.”

After finishing his words, he left without looking back. Standing there, Han Yuheng looked at his back thoughtfully.

Even though he was relieved that the baby inside Xiao Xi’s belly was not his, the fact that he had betrayed his marriage and his wife still lingered. He didn’t think telling his wife that he didn’t have an illegitimate son would change anything, but he still wanted to let her know.

As for whether they could fix their marriage, he would leave that decision to his wife. After his wife went back to her parents’ house, he had been thinking a lot about their relationship.

All these years, it had always been his wife who gave in to him. This time, it should be his turn to give in to her. If she still wanted a divorce after learning about this, he would fulfill her wish.

Maybe giving her freedom and letting her go was the only thing he could do for her. His love was no longer about tying her to his side. Right now, he only wanted her to be happy and to protect her, even if that meant he would lose her forever.

After making up his mind, Han Yuheng took a deep breath and went to the Bai family’s house. He needed to talk to his wife about this.
